Feeling Words

Perhaps the best of time
can't really be described 
like this, just with rhyme 
and weak words
for feelings are so much more 
and these things
can't do justice
they can try and describe
but not really
feel anything themselves. 

Sailing Words

Words can flow
or sink 
I can say
what I think
or keep it
in my head
where
there they stick
and then
in odd ways
they leak in to 
my dreams
and a whole 
other world
happens in my bed
I try to describe 
the night pictures 
and the words can flow
or sink.

Paradise

My friend got me poetry magnets as a late birthday present. Now I have a baking tray of words in case I ever stuck =]  This poem is made of some of those words 

Please
lets be happy
always young
shine like a golden summer
only sleep and dream
after a beautiful day
or 
bloom in the night
with the moon. 

Hips

Sometimes

not many words

are needed

under the pounding

thrum

of heavy beats

making the back sweat

and drinks go down

quick

all there is to do

is

sway

the hips. 

Pin Cushion

Too tired to write properly o.o

yes, yes, working 9 - half 5. blaahh I'm a wimp. shut up.

We may live to regret

wait,

we will live to regret

some of what we say

or do

but I for one

try to balance it out

with what I say to you.

Not all the time I'm perfect

not even very close

but when I snap

getting mad

stick a pin

in  your skin

I'll try to

take it out

forget the pain,

treat me the same

so when you

or I 

are gone

we'll know

that what we had

might not have been perfect

but it was

possibly 

close. 

Words Trying to be Senses

Words try to wrap
themselves around 
the senses 
pushing feelings
forward
signalling something
in the brain
mentally 
rather than
physically.


For from the written word alone
you can't smell a rose
touch silk
be shouted at
taste chocolate
you see the words themselves 
not the view


So forgive my attempts
at striking a match
to your brain
but I am trying
and maybe
something will spark. 

A Poem on Poetry

Poetry:
emotion
in motion 
words flowing
never knowing
exactly
the right words to use
try not to abuse
the language 
try and make it good
the way we should
holding a mirror to life
and reflecting
on the reflections.
